A Masters in Business Administration (MBA) is an internationally-recognised and highly-regarded award. Whether you are already in a management position and wanting to take your career to the next level, or aspire to leadership roles in the future, the York Business School Masters of Business Administration (MBA) in Healthcare Management has been designed to help you gain the skills, knowledge and experience you need to give yourself that competitive edge. Dealing with the complex environment of modern healthcare requires highly skilled leaders and managers. The programme provides you with the opportunity to gain a practitioner-focused MBA, laying the foundations for a critically aware and holistic understanding of business management, with a particular focus on healthcare management. Healthcare leaders now need skills in human and financial resources management, leadership, strategic planning and organisational design, an ability to manage complex change, and organisational decision-making. Our MBA gives you the opportunity to develop these skills, while at the same time enhancing your capacity to analyse and understand the complex nature of healthcare and how it is delivered.

You will explore issues that have significant impact within organisations by working with others and building on both personal individual experiences and comparing and contrasting with those of cohort members. You will carry out projects and assignments designed to help you apply the theories, tools and techniques you learn.
